It's win or go home tonight for the LSU Tigers baseball team. The Tigers lost 4-3 last night to the Florida Gators in the first game of a best of three game series at the College World Series.

The Florida Gators put up a 3 run 4th inning while the Tigers didn't score until the 6th inning when the posted two runs to make the game close.

The Gators got a run in the 7th inning to make it 4-2 and the Tigers posted another run in the bottom of the 8th but couldn't rally in the 9th and lost 4-3.

The loss now puts the Tigers in a tough position. LSU must win tonight to force a game 3. If the Tigers lose, they go home and the Florida Gators will in their first baseball national championship in school history.

Good new for Tiger fans is that the most winning pitcher in LSU history will be on the mound tonight as Jared Poche' will take the hill.
